Commodities trading is the buying and selling of raw materials or primary agricultural products. There are hard commodities, which are generally mined natural resources like gold or oil, and soft commodities, which are livestock or agricultural goods.
Commodities trading predates all other forms of trading, as burgeoning civilisations would barter for food and supplies. In modern times, the physical commodities market is hugely dependent on futures prices, enabling producers (such as farmers) to secure a price from buyers in advance.
However, the sophisticated network of commodities exchanges that exists today enables speculative traders to access the price movements of these assets in the short term.
Trading on commodities gives you exposure to the prices of oil, gas, metals and more, without ever having to take physical delivery of the asset or worry about storing them. Unlike futures contracts, CFDs do not have a specified expiry date, giving you flexibility on when you close your position.
Many investors view commodities as a potential hedge against inflation, as their prices are not highly correlated with other assets. Gold in particular has historically been considered a safe haven, as it tends to retain its value during times of economic uncertainty.
Trading commodities also enables you to use leverage to amplify your exposure. This can magnify your profits but also your losses, as both will be based on the full value of the position.
We offer spread betting and CFD trading on an ever-growing range of commodities, giving you exposure to their price movements without having to buy them outright. We provide spot prices on these commodities rather than futures, giving you flexibility over when you close your position.

Very trustworthy and affordable for any size trades
It is very easy to connect with TradingView but the web interface is also great.
Easy to use and great support. Been using it for 2 years already and still happy
Capital.com is one of the best stock trading platforms I’ve used. The UX and UI on both the mobile app and web platform are outstanding, making it incredibly easy to navigate. They’ve built a vibrant community of traders and investors, and their UAE team really stands out for delivering an exceptional trading experience.
Best broker!! they call you to see if you need any help. The app is good and nice better than the rest
Great app! I requested some features to be added, such as analysis tools, and they delivered. Amazing job! The agents are always helpful and reply quickly. It’s not 5 stars because, at times, some less experienced agents may say it’s impossible to fulfill the request or fix the problem while another agent, like Angel, quickly escalated the issue to the necessary team/person/department and resolved it
This is an excellent platform. The stop loss and take profit work very well; however, when the changes are very fast like at the beginning of the session, the stop loss does not work. If this defect is corrected it will be the perfect platform.
-Nice -Easy to use - Beautiful Interface
I think I'm new in this trading platform, but I find it affordable and most reliable. To be honest I'm not fully experienced trader, but with very limited knowledge of trading I try learn as much as I can by trying out different platforms see if can make money.

Gives you options to start learning how too do it as it gives you a demo option to learn from your mistakes
Efficiency. When creating the account, it was smooth, efficient from start to finish. Verification of documents also was done the same day, unlike other platforms where you have to wait a day or two.
From what I'm seeing it's cool Mixing it with trading view it's perfect... I didn't give it 5 star yet cos I still need to use it for some time
